Hey John--
Former Seattle resident (and still current amplifier!) listening from Chicago while getting some work done. Been really loving the new Foxing album that dropped a few weeks back--any chance of hearing something from it? My favorite track is "Beacons", but "Draw Down the Moon" and "Go Down Together" are a couple of the actual singles.
Thanks and wishing you the best!

According to frontman Andrew Savage, “That’s what life can be like here; a world of constant motion surrounds you while you’re just walking toward where you need to be. There’s a lot of beauty that can be missed, and it wasn’t until the streets were virtually empty that I did miss it. The song was written before all quarantine, but eerily enough the lyrics echo that longing. Now the city is back and, so it seems, are Parquet Courts.” - bit.ly

Hi John, Morgan, and Multidimensional Morning Show Team,
Hearing John and Morgan talk about helping others, the once you don't know, reminded me of what I once heard James Murphy said his father told him: “How you leave a public bathroom is how you know if you’ve got ethics.”
I think of that everytime I'm in a public bathroom, and with that, could we hear some LCD Soundsystem this morning?
Thank you for all the music.

Hello John,
I’m painting my basement this morning and able to tune in to KEXP for the first time in about two weeks. I missed it!
I’ve been listening to Morphine quite a bit lately - no idea how that happened but I love it. Would love to request some if it fits this AM.
Thanks,
- Scott
